Inverse Problems: Theory and Applications

Course Description

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2024-2025.

The course covers foundational theory underpinning the inverse problems that naturally arise when developing technology for society. Through a treatment of theory and application, the course aims to equip students to answer questions such as: "what source/forcing/action has caused the system response I am currently observing?"; "what model parameters best instantiate a predictive model explaining certain noisy/incomplete observations of the subject system?"; and "how certain am I about any of the foregoing results?"

When Offered Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: MATH 2940.

• Identify an inverse problem.
• Analyze it from a theoretical point of view.
• Employ deterministic and stochastic methods to solve it.
• Apply solution methods in real-world contexts.
• Critically analyze their resulting solutions.
